Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric toothbrush technology, and in particular to an electric toothbrush with a push-pull hidden charging port that can be charged upright. Background Technology
[0002] Electric toothbrushes use the rapid rotation or vibration of a motor to create high-frequency vibrations in the brush head, instantly breaking down toothpaste into fine foam that deeply cleans between teeth. At the same time, the vibration of the bristles promotes blood circulation in the mouth and has a massaging effect on the gum tissue, making them widely used in daily life.
[0003] Currently, most electric toothbrushes have built-in rechargeable batteries. They can be divided into wireless charging and wired charging models based on the charging method. For wired charging models, the main design is to set a charging port on the outer shell of the electric toothbrush. When using it, you simply plug the charging cable into the charging port to charge. However, the charging port is exposed, and since electric toothbrushes are electronic products that are frequently exposed to water, the charging port can be easily damaged by prolonged exposure or immersion in water. At the same time, the exposed charging port is prone to the accumulation of debris, which will also reduce the lifespan of the charging port.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and upgrade the structure of the charging port on wired electric toothbrushes. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an electric toothbrush with a push-pull hidden charging port that can be charged upright.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An electric toothbrush with a retractable, upright charging port includes an electric toothbrush body and a charging base. The bottom of the electric toothbrush body has a mating cavity, and the charging base has a sleeve. A charging head electrically connected to the electric toothbrush body is disposed inside the sleeve, with the port of the charging head located on the side of the sleeve. The sleeve can be pushed and pulled into the mating cavity, and the port of the charging head can be exposed when the charging base is pulled outward.
[0008] Preferably, the insertion cavity is provided with a sliding groove, and the top end of the sleeve post is provided with a slider corresponding to the sliding groove. The slider is placed in the sliding groove to realize the push-pull connection between the sleeve post and the insertion cavity.
[0009] Preferably, the slider separates into a spring clip with its end suspended in the air, and the side of the spring clip always abuts against the end face of the slide groove.
[0010] Preferably, the cavity opening of the insertion cavity is provided with a groove that allows both the spring buckle and the slider to pass through simultaneously. The groove opening is connected to the slide groove through a bend. The slide groove is divided by a partition to form a spring buckle slide groove for the spring buckle to move and a slider slide groove for the slider to move.
[0011] Preferably, the two ends of the snap-lock slide are provided with locking grooves that can accommodate the top of the snap-lock, and the locking grooves at both ends are connected by a boss surface.
[0012] Preferably, the side of the charging dock is provided with an anti-slip part.
[0013] Preferably, the electric toothbrush body includes a handle and a toothbrush head. The handle has a built-in circuit board, an electric toothbrush motor electrically connected to the circuit board, and a battery. The output shaft of the electric toothbrush motor is connected to the toothbrush head. The insertion cavity is located at the bottom of the handle. The charging head is connected to the circuit board via a flexible wire.
[0014] By adopting the above solution, this utility model places the charging head on the charging base and connects the charging base to the electric toothbrush body in a push-pull manner. This allows the charging head to be pulled out for upright charging when needed, and to be pushed back into the socket for concealment when not in use, thus isolating the charging head from the outside world. The whole system meets the requirements of wired charging and also protects the charging head well. Attached Figure Description

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an electric toothbrush with a vertical charging push-pull hidden charging port, including an electric toothbrush body 1 and a charging base 2. The bottom of the electric toothbrush body 1 is provided with a mating cavity 11, and the charging base 2 is provided with a sleeve post 21. The sleeve post 21 is provided with a charging head 3 electrically connected to the electric toothbrush body 1. The port of the charging head 3 is located on the side of the sleeve post 21. The sleeve post 21 can be pushed and pulled into the mating cavity 11, and when the charging base 2 is pulled outward, the port of the charging head 3 can be exposed.
[0023] In this embodiment, the charging head 3 is placed on the charging base 2, and the charging base 2 is connected to the electric toothbrush body 1 in a push-pull manner. This allows the charging head 3 to be pulled out for use when needed, and to be pushed back into the insertion cavity 11 for concealment when not in use, thus isolating the charging head 3 from the outside world. The whole system not only meets the requirements of wired charging, but also protects the charging head well.
[0024] In practical use, when charging is needed, the user grasps the charging base 2 and pulls it outwards to expose the sleeve 21, which is the port of the charging head 3. The charging cable can then be inserted. It should be noted that after inserting the charging cable into the charging head 3, the entire unit can be placed upright. Because of the inserted charging cable, the sleeve 21 will be blocked and retracted, allowing for charging in an upright position. Alternatively, it can be charged horizontally, depending on the user's needs. When charging is not needed, simply unplug the charging cable and push the charging base 2 inwards, causing the sleeve 21 to retract into the insertion cavity 11, thus completing the storage process when not charging.
[0025] Furthermore, regarding the connection between the sleeve post 21 and the mating cavity 11, in this embodiment, the mating cavity 11 is provided with a sliding groove 12, and the top end of the sleeve post 21 is provided with a slider 22 corresponding to the sliding groove 12. The slider 22 is placed in the sliding groove 12 to realize the push-pull connection between the sleeve post 21 and the mating cavity 11.
[0026] Furthermore, to avoid a loose feeling during movement and to make the sliding more stable, the slider 22 in this embodiment is separated into a spring buckle 23 with its end suspended in the air. The side of the spring buckle 23 is always in contact with the end face of the slide groove 12.
[0027] Furthermore, the cavity 11 has a recessed opening 13 at its opening, allowing both the snap fastener 23 and the slider 22 to pass through simultaneously. The recessed opening 13 is connected to the slide groove 12 via a bend 14. This design primarily ensures that the slider 22 and snap fastener 23 are smoothly installed into the slide groove 12 at the factory. The bend 14 prevents the slider 22 and snap fastener 23 from detaching during pull-out. The slide groove 12 is divided by a spacer 15 into a snap fastener slide 121 for the snap fastener 23 and a slider slide 122 for the slider 22. Thus, after the snap fastener 23 is embedded in the corresponding snap fastener slide 121, the spacer 15 prevents the snap fastener 23 from detaching from the snap fastener slide 121, preventing the charging base 2 from rotating. If it rotates, the snap fastener 23 and slider 22 may detach from the recessed opening 13 again during use.
[0028] Furthermore, to achieve locking after storage and locking after extension, the spring-loaded slide 121 in this embodiment is provided with locking grooves 16 at both ends to accommodate the top of the spring-loaded snap. The locking grooves 16 at both ends are connected by a boss surface 17, which can also be made of silicone sheet, rubber sheet, or other plastic sheet. Thus, when pushed inward, the top of the spring-loaded snap 23 will engage with this locking groove 16, thereby forming a lock. When pulled outward, the spring-loaded snap 23 will first contact the boss surface and then slide into the other locking groove 16. This ensures a stable locking effect whether stored or extended for use, making it more convenient for upright charging.
[0029] Furthermore, in order to prevent slippage during the pulling process, the charging base 2 in this embodiment is provided with an anti-slip part 24 on its side.
[0030] Furthermore, the specific structure of the electric toothbrush body 1 is largely the same as the existing structure. Specifically, the electric toothbrush body 1 of this embodiment includes a handle 101 and a toothbrush head 102. The handle 101 houses a circuit board 103, an electric toothbrush motor 104 electrically connected to the circuit board 103, and a battery 105. The output shaft of the electric toothbrush motor 104 is connected to the toothbrush head 102. The insertion cavity 11 is located at the bottom of the handle 101. The charging head 3 is connected to the circuit board 103 via a flexible wire.
[0031] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
